Are you so positive it hasn't? Better ask some Intel people "In the Know". Hey, we don't need to. When Mike Magee was with The Register, he reported before Christmas 2000 that Hammer had taped out, and there were samples. He repeated that report a year later just before last Christmas, only this time, Hammer had taped out just before Christmas this year 2001. Now we're hearing before Christmas 2002. Seems like it's becoming an annual "Mike's Christmas BS Story". It seems (according to some), that Hammer has now taped out..... twice. Still nowhere to be seen... Must be a Paper Hammer..... :-) Semi

Milo, to be fair, I believe Hammer may have taped out, or may be taping out this month. AMD could be waiting for the CC to announce it because of the quiet period. But there is no way Clawhammer will arrive on the market in 2002. Nor do I believe that there will be a 2-way SMP Clawhammer until later in 2003. And you don't want to know my honest opinion about Sledgehammer. Bookmark my post, and if I'm wrong, I'll eat my words with a helping of Kimchee. ;-) Tenchusatsu
